April 14, 2008 Cate Blanchet Has Baby Boy!

Baby makes five for Cate Blanchett and her writer-director husband, Andrew Upton. Their, son Ignatius Martin, was born Sunday at a Sydney hospital, according to Australian magazine WHO. The couple, who are based in Australia, already have two sons: Dashiell John, 5, and Roman Robert, 3. In November, when she confirmed her pregnancy, Blanchett, 38, was informed of rumors that she was carrying a boy, prompting her to respond: “You know more than me. It’s early days yet. It’s due in April.” The Aviator Supporting Actress Oscar winner and Upton are currently co-directors of the Sydney Theatre Company – a career move partly made in the interests of her children. Elder son Dashiell, says his mom, “needs to be settled, and I respect that.” Cate Blanchett is a great talent and I’m thrilled to see her bring more Tiny Tots for Christ into the world.

  • Wow. I did not think I would ever hear of another person named Ignatius. My daughter (8 yrs old) has a boy in her class with that name. His nickname is Iggy. Everytime she says his full name I bust out laughing because it sounds so funny, lol.
